headshuck Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Well, that sucks. I’m stuck on a phone call watching the quad feed and they say Spencer and Gilman are in the top right corner and all I see are a couple of women wrestlers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Packard Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 I don’t watch freestyle enough to criticize officials, but I see wrestlers compare how US officials call matches vs international officials. Wouldn’t it make sense to bring in some international refs for these tournaments so we get a sense of how matches will be called? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats meh Lee fan I agree that walking a guy out is not as exciting as a takedown. But the way a step out shapes a match makes the match better. Athletes can’t flee the mat as easily, and they get rewarded for taking the risk and effort to attack a leg. Much better than two guys sitting at edge, refusing to engage. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d3grappler Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 I wanted Spencer to win that match bad, but I am confused as to how that was not four. Looking forward to seeing some of the other camera angles from cameras on on the floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did Spencer turn down? First thing to hit was his right elbow followed by both cheeks and his back. Sure looked like four, but they said there was not enough evidence to over turn, rather than confirm. One other thing I noticed. When they are showing the reviews on the scoreboard they have two views, one is a regular camera the other is a fisheye lense. You cannot tell anything from the fisheye lense view because it make everything look farther away. It seems like they do not have enough cameras so they set one for fisheye. Another example of USAW doing an ameteurish job running this tournament. Drowning in data, but thirsting for knowledge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SocraTease Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Gilman wrestled a strong match against Lee and it almost worked. He didn't get the breaks on a quick stoppage when he was in on the leg. He didn't get the break on what could have been a four, and even Lee's TD to a turn was something he might have prevented in retrospect. The point: these two guys are close, and Gilman seems to have the better gas tank the longer the match goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
